When you import plays into BG Stats from Yucata, BGA, a Play File, ScorePal, Deep Print Games or other apps you can match all Games, Players and Locations to those you already have in your app. All matches that are made and imported in the app will be remembered for next imports.
The Matching screen is divided into a few sections: General information about the import, Received Games, Received Players and Received Locations.
General information
Shows General data about the import.
- Import from: source of your data, e.g. the player that sent you the play file, or your Yucata or BGA username. Matches are saved separately for each source.
- Date or Number of plays: if one play is imported, the date will be shown, otherwise, the number of imported plays will be shown. If some or all plays were imported before, the number of existing plays is shown. Existing plays will be updated with the new import.
When the option “Import unmatched Players as Anonymous” is enabled, all unmatched Players will be imported as Anonymous Players.
Received data
The matching screen can show three colours for matches: red, yellow and green.
- Red: this means the item is unmatched
- Yellow: this means the app suggests a match
- Green: this means the item was imported before
You can always add/change a match by tapping that line.
Games
If a Game is not matched (red) the game will be added to the app when you import.
Players
If a Player is not matched (red) the Player will be added to the app when you import, unless you enable the General option “Import unmatched Players as Anonymous”.
It is always possible to make an unmatched Player Anonymous by tapping “Make Anonymous”.
Locations
If a Location is not matched (red) the Location will be added to the app when you import.
